About this file
This document provides a notice of intent to establish a qualified suppliers list for chest seals. The Defense Health Agency Medical Logistics Division and Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Medical/Surgical Prime Vendor program will issue a sources sought notification on or about June 16, 2024 through SAM.gov. The qualified suppliers list will include vented or valved chest seals to manage penetrating chest trauma by sealing wounds while allowing air and fluid to escape without being drawn back in. Chest seals are intended for short term use until the patient reaches a higher level of care. Products may vary in features such as size, packaging, and bundling options. Excluded are occlusive chest seals that are not vented or valved. The objective is to solicit product information and evaluations to create the qualified suppliers list, which will be the basis for a subsequent standardization action and incentive agreement under the Medical/Surgical Prime Vendor program executed by the Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Directorate of Medical Materiel. Vendors must have or be obtaining distribution and pricing agreements with the prime vendor Cardinal Health or Owens & Minor as well as a System for Award Management registration and Commercial and Government Entity Code. All items must also be on the distribution and pricing agreement and comply with Trade Agreements Act requirements. The notice provides information on the forthcoming qualified suppliers list announcement and states that no responses are required at this time.

This is not a request for quote or proposal.
Examples of items for this Chest Seals product line could include but are not limited to: vented/valved Chest Seals that manage a penetrating chest trauma by sealing the open wound and air and fluid to escape from the pleural cavity without air being drawn back in. Chest Seals are intended to seal an open chest wound and minimize the risk of developing tension pneumothorax. They are intended for short term use until the patient is moved to the next echelon of care. These products come in a variety of features such as but not limited to varying; units of measure, sizes and shapes, packaging considerations (physical package characteristics) and bundling of items (combo packages). This product line excludes occlusive Chest Seals that are not vented or valved.
The primary objective of this effort will be to solicit information and products for evaluation in order to create a QSL. The subject QSL will be the basis of a separate Standardization Action (SA) resulting in an Incentive Agreement (IA). This initiative will be part of the MSPV program which is executed by the DLA Troop Support, Directorate of Medical Materiel.
To participate in the QSL process vendors must have or be in the process of obtaining a Distribution and Pricing Agreement (DAPA) and a separate commercial agreement with the current Medical/Surgical PV for each MMESO Area of Responsibility (AOR), i.e., Cardinal Health, and Owens & Minor.

All items proposed to be included in this QSL must be on DAPA for the DLA Troop Support MSPV program. The MSPV Program requires that all items be manufactured in a Trade Agreements Act (TAA) Compliant Country (as defined by FAR 52.225-5), unless it is determined that no functionally equivalent item is available from a compliant source. To be eligible for inclusion in the proposed QSL, all vendors are required to complete the DAPA TAA Certification. Detailed information about the QSL requirements will be provided in the QSL Announcement.
The purpose of this Notice of Intent to establish a Qualified Supplier List is to inform qualified entities interested in providing these services that the release of the QSL Announcement is imminent.
